(Swoon!!) As the listing agent, one of my favorite things about this house is that it reminds you that Mid-Century Modern styling wasn't really about decorating. It was about designing a way of life. The living spaces are generous without feeling oversized. The rooms flow naturally into one another. There is an abundance of natural light streaming in from the windows and blurring the boundaries between inside and outside. Everything has a purpose. So, if you're seeking a freshly painted, move-in-ready, spacious 3/3 in one of West Augusta's most desirable neighborhoods in an appropriately stellar school zone? CHECK! BUT IF YOU'RE ALSO AN ... Architecture buff wanting to reclaim the original character of an authentic, distinctive Mid-Century Modern home? ALSO CHECK. That's where the next owner gets to leave their mark. Personally, I'd love to see someone update it in a way that honors and builds on its original nature. Homes like this don't come along very often, especially ones that've only had one owner.
